I developed this recipe when raising four children on a limited budget. My family likes this better than meat tacos. It has been a hit with guests as well. Anyone who likes lentils will enjoy this variation. Ingredients:
1 package red lentils or 1 package green lentil |
1 onion, minced (use more or less to taste) |
2 cloves garlic |
favorite taco seasoning or homemade salsa |
salt and pepper (optional) |
sliced avocado |
alfalfa sprout |
chopped onion |
grated cheese |
sour cream |
diced tomato |
corn tortilla (you may use small flour tortillas if you prefer) |
Directions:
1. Cook lentils with the garlic and minced onions, according to package directions until they are the consistency of refried beans.
2. I use less water and add as I need it so I do not have to drain any water.
3. Add packaged taco seasoning or fresh salsa and salt and pepper.
4. The consistency should be thick.
5. Warm tortillas.
6. Add a spoon of lentil mixture, and your favorite garnishes.
7. Serve and enjoy.
8. I like to do a taco bar and let everyone make their own.
